Big Sam still keen on England

West Ham boss Sam Allardyce believes he may be considered for the England job if he is 'on top of his game' when Fabio Capello leaves the role. Allardyce missed out on the job to Steve McClaren in 2006 but, with Capello due to stand down after the Euro 2012 finals, the 57-year-old believes he may still be a contender."I have to be on top of my game when they start thinking about who is going to replace Fabio," he told Sky Sports News."If I am on top of my game with West Ham United I might get considered."Turning to West Ham, Allardyce says the club are firmly focused on promotion back to the Premier League this season."I think we will and should be around the two promotion places by the end of the season and that is putting pressure on myself and everyone," he said."But that is how we see it and we have to learn and deal with that pressure because of the club we are and for the fans at Upton Park."The Hammes chief also continues to back the proposed move of the club to the Olympic Stadium - insisting it would benefit them."The prospect of speaking to a player of the highest quality to come and improve West Ham, taking them to the Olynmpic Stadium would be a massive benefit," he said."The players Man City have now, would they have been attracted to Maine Road? I don't think so as Eastlands is a wonderful venue."
